ADLINK PCM-6308V+ - Manual (Page 40)

30 C/C++ Library
All functions in the PCI-6308 driver start with 6308 as
{hardware_model} and can be used by both the PCI-6308V and
PCI-6308A.
In order to distinguish the difference between DOS library and
Windows 95 library, a capital "W" is place on the beginning of each
function name of the Windows 95 DLL driver. e.g.
W_6308_Initial().
Data Types
We have defined some data type in the Pci_6308.h (DOS) and
Acl_pci.h (Windows 95) header files. These data types are used
by the PCI-6308/6216 library and suggest you use these data
types in your application programs. The following table shows the
data type names and their range.
